Mississippi’s only burn center employees, who were only given about a month’s notice that the center would close, are in shock. But the center’s leaders are determined to find a home somewhere else in the state.
Aiden Robinson of Brandon might look a lot different today if not for the care he received at the JMS Burn and Reconstruction Center in Jackson in 2019.
Aiden, who was 9 years old at the time, was cooking with his father at their home when he accidentally dumped a pot of boiling water on himself, burning over 80% of his body.
